Wow. That's on borrowed time......but it'll be fine....until it isn't.
The moment it stops making noise is the moment is just got really expensive (assuming valve bender engine plus a tow truck fee)

well, like a reddit user said, "I now pronounce you piston and valve. You may now kiss the valve."

It was supposed to be only a platonic love, with the piston longingly gazing at the valves, but it ended in marriage. Tragedy, oh!
